Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)
I'm pretty sure the bolded part confirms your original statement... not contradicts it... I don't think Jones is in trouble this year (mid-season)... unless we're talking about a catastrophically bad start... like 0-10 with an average deficit of 15 points, etc...

Tiger-Cats @ Argonauts
There was also a money issue (as in BC offered more)... I met Milt some time around 05/06 at a charity event (it was a relatively small dinner so I actually had a chance to have some real conversation with him)... I asked him about Geroy and he said it he wanted to come back but he, understandably, followed the money...

CFL To Celebrate Canada 150 On Saturday
Are those Canadian player shirts going to be for sale at the Bomber store?

Tiger-Cats @ Argonauts
I think everyone already knows this... it's the lack of natural athleticism and speed that holds him back... and like @Atomic mentioned, that also accurately describes Greg Peach...

Bombers select REC Drew Wolitarsky in supplemental draft
He likes to fish?... yeah, he'll fit in just fine in Manitoba!

Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)
Not really sure where to throw this... an article by Henry Burris for the Players Tribune... not a particularly impressive piece of writing but maybe a nice advertisement for the CFL... https://www.theplayerstribune.com/henry-burris-quarterback-cfl/

Tiger-Cats @ Argonauts
that's really unfortunate... hate to see stars go down... only one week in and Sherritt and Toliver already out for the year...

Prognosticators: Us - Part 2
As soon as I saw a new guy called "The Source" with a Mike Kelly avatar... I knew he had to be a troll of some sort... But I'll wait to see how this plays out...

that's really ballsy to predict a tie....

Tiger-Cats @ Argonauts
Safe to say Ricky can still play... as long as he's kept upright....

Stripped TD
just watched the replays... looked like a blown call to me... pretty clear he had lost possession by time the ball broke the plane...

SASKATCHEWAN @ MONTREAL
I think it proved that Jones is a great defensive coach and a pretty good HC... his skills as a GM, however... the results are currently speaking for themselves...

The Expansion Draft
this x1000... the NHL draft is basically a crapshoot after the first few picks... if look up the guys taken between 13-24 in the draft the last 5-10 years and you'll basically see no correlation between the success rate at 13 vs the success rate at 24.... haha, yeah I'm sure that would go over well in Toronto... but I'd gladly take it

CFL 2017 season to be livestreamed in more than 130 countries
you might say you got... straight outta Compton... I'll show myself out

SASKATCHEWAN @ MONTREAL
These two statements appear to be contradictory ... I don't particularly care about tonight's game... but I wouldn't mind seeing* Durant put up 400+ yards with 5 TDs and and about 50 on the scoreboard... *I won't actually be watching the game... so more like reading the boxscores...

No more ctv sports
I think one of the most disappointing parts of this will be the elimination of the "Local Sports Star of the Week".... that was a cool segment that featured a local amateur athlete who excelled at their sport... probably the highlight of most of those young men/women's sports career to get interviewed and get to be on TV... But hey, I want to know more about where Kyle Lowry is going to sign!!

Top 50 players in the CFL according to TSN
Personally, I'd have Mike Reilly at number one, ahead of BLM... I think Bo is fantastic and would love him on my team... but I think Reilly has a better arm, more mobile (though that is starting to decrease with age/injuries), better improviser and is more likely to "carry a team on his back" so to speak... just my opinion... I'd also have Harris ahead of Messam... Harris is the better all-around back...

How does our week 2 roster shape up?
Completely agree... I remember watching that throw thinking there's no way he'll catch up to it...
